Description
In a scene from the kabuki play, 47 Rōnin, the son of leader Oishi Yuranosuke, Rikiya, pauses outside of the Ichiriki teahouse while delivering a message to his father. The Ichiriki teahouseis situated in the Gion district of Kyoto. It is the most famous Ochaya (teahouse) in Japan due to its association with the events of the 47 Rōnin. It is very exclusive, and apparently nearly impossible for a foreigner to visit.
